Gun question.

[T. A. Gardner]

We give hogs we shoot away. The country has a contest every month. You turn in pig noses and you get one number per nose in a raffle each month . If you win the monthly raffle you are entered in a once a year raffle. I know a guy that won a nice shotgun. Anyway the reason they have the raffle is because wild pigs are a huge problem.

Coyote are the problem in AZ. Javelina are on your hunting license and have a season and bag limit. Not coyote...

What does that have to do with a first grade class was wiped out by a rapid fire gun,that is not made for hunting!
Only a Soldier needs a rapid fire weapon.

I just demonstrated a need for a rapid fire AR 15. A guy just killed 11 people and wounded 9 with a pistol. The solution is to harden the target.

Yeah coyotes have killed our calves before so I shoot them when I see them. If you hang their dead body on your fence they avoid your property. We have a couple burrows and they go after coyotes and protect the cows. Lamas will do it too but I have never owned a lama. You see them in field occasionally most of the time they are there to protect the cows from coyotes..

The first statement is technically correct, but mostly wrong. The second statement is completely wrong. Soldiers are the most common group both to carry M-16, and to refer to a magazine as a clip. Night clearly never served.

Being a gravy seal does not make Night an expert on anything.



And it gets worse. Technically the clip is the strip of metal used to reload the magazine, so any soldier who has used a M-16, or 1911 pistol would have used a clip to reload the magazines.

A clip is not a magazine. A magazine is not a clip.
Neither the M-16 nor a 1911 pistol uses a clip.

Going to modern war with a sword will get you laughed at.

Who said anything about using a sword in a war zone? A sword is still a serious weapon.

Even in the past, swords were more rarely used in combat than you would think.

Discard of history.

They were useless against a pike.

No, they can be quite effective against a pike.

[Into the Night]

Yep Kyle Rittenhouse did that in Kenosha

Kyle didn't use an M-16.

They are a big enough group to have many mass murders ,many children in schools.
But I have zero faith anything can be done.
America is a gun junkie and nothing will change that.
It's just part of the fiber of America.

Shoot back.

A Glock cannot kill someone past about a 100 yards;

A Glock can certainly kill at 100 yards and even past that.

an AR-15 can easily kill at 800 yards.

So?

Glocks lack the accuracy of an AR-15 even below 100 yards.

So?

A Glock is not going to get through reasonable body armor, like an AR-15 can.

You planning on wearing body armor?

Glocks are really not designed for a high rate of fire like AR-15's are.

Both are semiautomatic weapons. They have the same rate of fire.

There is one thing that makes a Glock better than an AR-15, it is easier to carry.

Easier to conceal too.

If I am a soldier, I know I am going out to kill someone, so I want to carry something like an AR-15.

Soldiers don't bother with the AR-15.

If I am a hunter, I know I am going out to kill something, so I want to carry something like a hunting rifle.

The AR-15 makes a good hunting rifle.

If I am anyone else, and do not know I am going out to kill anything, I want to either not carry any weapon, or at most carry a pistol.

You don't carry anything and don't want to. You are afraid of guns.

[Into the Night]

Because you're anti American

You are describing yourself. Inversion fallacy.

[Into the Night]

Yes, but it depends on how you define self defense.

Self defense is clearly defined. Playing word games here is stupid.

Most murders are done in some level of self defense,

Murder is not self defense.

but not legal self defense.

Murder is not self defense.

Shooting a robbery victim, so they cannot be a witness against you is not legally self defense.

Because murder is not self defense.

Like wipe out first graders at Sandyhook?

Shoot back.

What's evil is sacrificing kids so you can play with a gun.

No one is sacrificing kids.

FYI God didn't put animals here for target practice!
If you want to play with something that's what your cock is for.

Wild hogs are a serious pest, idjit.

My rule on shooting some critter, be it a deer, rattlesnake, or whatever, is You shoot it, you eat it. There are some exceptions for things that if you eat them you'll likely get sick and die, but on the whole, that's the rule. The wife found that out while we were dating. We were camping with some friends and I ended up having to finish a rattlesnake one of them wounded. Everybody present had to have some when I cooked it up.

By the way, it's more like eating squid than chicken...

Heh. Sounds like you overcooked it!

Shoot back.
You don't get to ban or limit any weapon for any reason.
No one has to justify a need for a gun.
